Speranta Terrei brings TB drugs and community support to the doorsteps of tuberculosis patients, finding them on the street or in dilapidated apartments and persuading them to complete treatment.
Challenge
Speranta Terrei addresses the need for patients to complete drug regimens of 6-24 months, depending on susceptible or resistant strain. Incomplete treatment contributes to transmission and drug resistance. When the TB dispensary doctor finds a patient missing visits, she requests a treatment supporter, called moderator. Our moderators take drugs to these vulnerable patients, encouraging them to complete treatment. Since 2006, 1444 TB patients have been supported during treatment.
Long-Term Impact
Patients will be less likely to infect others and develop drug resistance, benefiting their and society's health. 150 destitute, homeless, unemployed, or former prisoner TB patients will have services to reintegrate into socioeconomic life of Balti.
